Senior Building Evacuated by Underground Fire | Annapolis News

Friday morning in East Baltimore turned chaotic when firefighters responded to a grass fire on Greenmount Avenue only to discover a dangerous underground gas leak — forcing the evacuation of an entire senior apartment building. With the help of Baltimore Gas and Electric and a full emergency response, crews quickly contained the blaze, but the incident triggered a multi-block lockdown from Preston to Biddle Streets. An MTA bus even served as a temporary refuge for displaced residents. Thankfully, no one was injured, but the mystery of what sparked the fire remains under investigation as authorities work to restore normalcy and safety to the neighborhood.
